[00:29]	kingoffrance	well thats a reason "cashless" hasnt been thought through.  check -- not legal tender -- noone is required to accept, to my knowledge.  "cash" ( excepting 1000s of pennies perhaps), is legal tender.      i mean, with "cashless" then the question is would there even be "legal tender" or will it all just be "negotiable" ?
[00:29]	kingoffrance	or will they make checks and credit card "legal tender" that you arent supposed to refuse?
[00:30]	kingoffrance	the only thing that makes "cash" "cash" is the legal tender deal
[00:30]	kingoffrance	if everything goes "cashless" where will that go?
[00:34]	Ariadne	schestowitz-TR2: Zelle is just the US equivalent to Europe's SEPA transfers
[00:34]	Ariadne	you can associate your bank account information with your phone number and email address, and use that to initiate an automated transfer without any fuss
[00:36]	Ariadne	the problem is that companies like PayPal and Square are trying to stop Zelle from being rolled out to all banks

[00:50]	DaemonFC	No, you are not required to accept a check.
[00:51]	DaemonFC	A check is just a promissory note, but unlike some handwritten IOU, there are legal consequences if it's not backed by enough money when the bearer presents it to the bank.
[00:51]	DaemonFC	Bad check laws are at the state level mostly, and the penalties for writing them vary.
[00:52]	DaemonFC	Interestingly, the criminal penalties for hot checks go away if you file bankruptcy while the prosecutor is bringing charges.
[00:52]	DaemonFC	The bankruptcy wipes out the underlying debt to the bearer of the check, and so the prosecutor can't proceed any further against you in court with the criminal charge.
[00:53]	DaemonFC	So holding a check potentially makes you an unsecured bankruptcy creditor.
[00:53]	DaemonFC	And filing bankruptcy can get you out of trouble with misdemeanor hot check prosecutions.

[01:55]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR2, I just bought Mandy a couple pair of eyeglasses.
[01:56]	DaemonFC	$95 for two pair of the nicest ones they sell at Zenni.
[01:56]	DaemonFC	You'd pay about $450 for one pair like this at Walmart.
[01:56]	schestowitz-TR2	for the brand?
[01:56]	DaemonFC	But they'd give you the second pair half off. LOL
[01:56]	schestowitz-TR2	how much do they cost to make?
[01:56]	DaemonFC	Not much.
[01:57]	DaemonFC	Yeah, brands and they have an Elton John brand at Walmart now.
[01:57]	DaemonFC	They look as weird as he does.
[01:57]	schestowitz-TR2	they probably cost less than the price of the slave labour (sweatshops)
[01:57]	DaemonFC	That and they get you on the "upsell".
[01:57]	DaemonFC	Like, you can get special lens materials and coating.
[01:57]	schestowitz-TR2	sounds like marketing to idiots
[01:58]	DaemonFC	So you walk in there and Walmart's like "This pair is $60!" but then they are just talking about the frames.
[01:58]	DaemonFC	If you get basic plastic lenses with no coatings on them, it's maybe $80-90 a pair, but if you want polycarbonate lenses, transitions, etc....
[01:58]	DaemonFC	That's where the big bucks come in.
[01:58]	DaemonFC	Transitions alone adds over $200.
[01:58]	schestowitz-TR2	that's like advertising a car by the price of the chassis 
[01:59]	DaemonFC	Yeah, you can get a pair of frames with no lenses.
[01:59]	DaemonFC	Why would you?
[01:59]	schestowitz-TR2	lol
[01:59]	DaemonFC	They'd do nothing. But you can, for $60.

[02:03]	DaemonFC	I went up a millimeter each lens in width on the lenses this time.
[02:03]	DaemonFC	I've been a lot more comfortable wearing these all day than my last pair.

[03:30]	DaemonFC	You think it was COVID downsizing or an investigation into the groping of teenagers?

[03:34]	schestowitz-TR2	well, not replying to me is a little scandal

[03:35]	DaemonFC	And they never found it.
[03:35]	DaemonFC	So they wrote him up and that stopped him from getting his raise that year.
[03:36]	DaemonFC	He also told me pretty much all of their procedures and how people could get things through airport security and he would constantly go on and on about how ghetto all of the black people he worked with were.

[03:37]	DaemonFC	schestowitz-TR2, I got him in pretty serious financial trouble, you know.
[03:37]	DaemonFC	On a delayed reaction.
[03:38]	DaemonFC	When Trump shut down the government and he was working for almost 6 weeks without a paycheck, we took a loan from his retirement fund and deposited it in his bank account.
[03:38]	DaemonFC	I told him hold onto it and write them a check to pay it back right away if it turned out we didn't need it.
[03:39]	DaemonFC	So he spent it all, including a down payment on a _second_ car for himself.
[03:40]	DaemonFC	I don't suppose that he realized when he was in there telling the cops that I pulled a knife on his slam piece that I was going to have to move out, with my income, and that he'd get two car payments and rent on that apartment all by himself.
[03:40]	DaemonFC	Then he moved to Tacoma, WA for some reason but hasn't been able to get the KIA retitled outside of Illinois.
[03:41]	DaemonFC	So he has to come back here every year and renew the title, which means that he's lying to them about where he lives.
[03:41]	DaemonFC	Err, renew the registration I mean.
[03:41]	DaemonFC	But, he worked himself into a big mess.
[03:41]	DaemonFC	It would have been better for him had he taken my side down at the police station.
[03:43]	DaemonFC	So, yeah, that's kind of my philosophy. Either you're with me or you're against me, and if you're against me, then look out, because I'll think of something.
[03:44]	DaemonFC	I mean, like, yeah, I could have kept the KIA. The Impala has needed major repairs, but the KIA would have been manageable.
[03:44]	DaemonFC	I mostly threw it in the bankruptcy to knock him over.
[03:44]	DaemonFC	I could have kept it.
[03:45]	DaemonFC	He can't sell it without my permission.
[03:45]	DaemonFC	So he's stuck with it now until I'm done with him.
[03:46]	DaemonFC	I'm going to wait. I may choose to sign it over one day if he ever finishes the payments.
[03:46]	DaemonFC	By refusing to do it right now, it means the car continues to depreciate and he can't use the equity to pay off most of the loan and be rid of it.

[14:14]	activelow	really, would be curious why GNU/Linux utilized C11 features in kernel
[14:14]	activelow	for a very long time, minimum GCC version for kernel was gcc-3.2 (C90 mostly); and then since kernel 4.19/5.8/5.15 this was bumped regularly
[14:15]	activelow	what's concerning me is language extensions; the most recent being C11 _Generic macro which is utilized since kernel v5.9; and this one is nasty

[14:19]	activelow	of cause, if i follow this, and bump to any newer C compiler, then I am hitting bugs in gentoo-crossdev again; the utilitiy which *was* stable with gcc-4.7.4 and allowed for relatively easy toolchain creation
[14:20]	activelow	then i noticed, when trying to backport some of my kernel patches, since kernel v5.0 linux changed internal crypto API; and i had implemented against this newer API already
[14:20]	activelow	so, backporting my crypto modules among other patches i maintain would require testing and debugging again...
[14:22]	activelow	if i keep kernel v5.10LTS then this probably won't compile with TinyCC or PCC anymore (without extending these compilers with C11 features)
[14:24]	activelow	i'll try again to replace the _Generic C11 feature from kernel v5.10LTS so this can be compiled with gcc-4.7.4 at least
[14:25]	activelow	in any case, the time when kernel 2.6 could be compiled with tinycc (C90/99) and fit onto floppy disk have passed; that's gone forever
[14:27]	activelow	OpenBSD too switched to llvm/clang; and problem with older C90/99 compliant kernels is often missing hardware support
[14:28]	activelow	backporting drivers is horror, couldn't imagine to backport some rockchip support to kernel 2.6/3.x for example;

[19:04]	DaemonFC	The Libertarian Party did surprisingly well in the Indiana Gubernatorial election last year.
[19:05]	DaemonFC	Not close to winning, but definitely in spoiler territory if the Democrats weren't so unpopular over there.
[19:06]	DaemonFC	There's no doubt in my mind that almost all of that 11.4% came out of Eric Holcomb's total, but it still wasn't enough to even cost him the majority of the ballots.

[19:06]	DaemonFC	Indiana started to go the way of Illinois with the crime and taxes and the Democrats were thrown out, possibly forever.
[19:07]	DaemonFC	In Illinois, the voters keep electing Democrats even though progressive ballot measures don't do well here.
[19:07]	DaemonFC	There's another one coming next year that the public unions want. I'm hoping we can smack it down as well.

[19:36]	DaemonFC	Trump went to Madame Harmon and Nazi Felta and told them immigrants = crime and that was that.
[19:37]	DaemonFC	It had been blasting over conservative radio for 30 years, that immigrants were trash people who brought disease and crime.
[19:37]	DaemonFC	COVID just gave them an opening to claim it was all the fault of immigrants.
[19:38]	DaemonFC	My mom and dad think that immigrants are a significant source of COVID, but the people at church and Trump rallies, no masks, no vaccine, no distancing, are not spreading it.

[19:40]	schestowitz-TR2	DaemonFC: well, US is almost finished to me
[19:40]	schestowitz-TR2	for most things you do not need them
[19:40]	schestowitz-TR2	a lot of software and hardware developed without US

[19:41]	DaemonFC	The government here decided to throw new subsidies at the ACA exchanges.
[19:41]	schestowitz-TR2	a lot of debian is made in europe
[19:41]	schestowitz-TR2	esp. the kde side
[19:41]	DaemonFC	13 million people and counting have signed up for new health insurance plans.
[19:41]	DaemonFC	But the subsidies expire next year, the enhanced ones.
[19:41]	schestowitz-TR2	gnome is sort of latin/hispanic to the extent kde is germanic
[19:41]	DaemonFC	Why would the Democrats expire them after a year if their goal is to make the law unkillable because so many people would be pissed if they lost it?

[19:42]	DaemonFC	What's going to happen is the enhanced credits will expire and they'll be "fighting with Joe Manchin" again, and they'll lose the Senate for sure!
[19:42]	TR News	#france almost 200,000 new #covid19 cases today. Worse than last year.
[19:43]	DaemonFC	Like any good politician, Manchin knows how to play things for people at home.
[19:43]	DaemonFC	He knows that people in West Virginia will like cheap health insurance and new slush funds for "infrastructure", but they don't want any kind of "Green New Deal".
[19:44]	DaemonFC	And I don't either.
[19:44]	DaemonFC	They tell us that the US economy is maybe $18-19 trillion a year at this point.
[19:44]	schestowitz-TR2	huh?
[19:44]	DaemonFC	And the government just keeps passing these laws that spend $2-3-4 trillion on top of everything else.
[19:44]	schestowitz-TR2	what measure is that?
[19:44]	schestowitz-TR2	yardstick of what?
[19:45]	DaemonFC	And that's why we see 7% inflation, and it could get worse.
[19:45]	DaemonFC	And this "Green New Deal" shit is just more inflation waiting to happen.
[19:45]	schestowitz-TR2	"US economy is maybe $18-19 trillion a year"

[19:45]	DaemonFC	We should still not be passing bills of this size.
[19:45]	schestowitz-TR2	the us has been racking up more than a trillion dollars more in debt each year for 20 decades
[19:45]	DaemonFC	Because there's nothing to pay for it except inflation.
[19:46]	schestowitz-TR2	or 6-7 trillion in the past two years alone
[19:46]	DaemonFC	Which is a flat tax that destroys low and middle income households.

And guess what? The people who did this already have homes abroad, bulletproof cars, mercenaries, and emergency chambers.

[20:55]	DaemonFC	Maybe they will, somewhere, in the road atlas-sized list of side effects that nobody ever reads.
[20:56]	DaemonFC	They also won't admit that medicinal marijuana and Omega 3 fatty acid (fish oil) supplements are better for arthritis pain and depression than most prescription drugs.
[20:57]	DaemonFC	There are natural remedies that work. The doctors stay in business by rolling their eyes at you and going "great, one of these people" and then lobbying the FDA to ban the alternative.
[20:58]	DaemonFC	I was listening to NPR in the car the other morning and the person they had on was admitting that lab studies are showing promise with treatment resistant depression using fish oil.
[20:58]	DaemonFC	I laughed, like, you know, tell me something I don't know.
[20:58]		*zleap has quit (Quit: Leaving)
[20:59]	DaemonFC	You don't think I've tried everything? The fish oil works better than Lexapro or Paxil or any of that other crap against major depression, and it manages to do that without throwing you into mania if you have bipolar disorder!

[21:36]	DaemonFC	schestowitz__[TR], Illinois passed a law that no longer allows public universities to require good ACT/SAT scores.
[21:36]	DaemonFC	Of course they did.
[21:36]	DaemonFC	They don't care if you actually achieve anything there, the whole point is to load you up with debt.
[21:37]	DaemonFC	Public universities are one of the most racist things in this country.
[21:37]	DaemonFC	They lure racial minorities in with useless programs that result in a lot of debt and leave them working minimum wage jobs anyway in the end.
[21:37]	DaemonFC	And they use that to subsidize their real programs.
[21:38]	DaemonFC	I always saw minimum wage as a sort of middle finger to the working class.
[21:38]	DaemonFC	It's like, "Hey, you, you know all that hard work you're doing? We'd pay you less but it wouldn't be legal.".

[23:32]	DaemonFC	So mom told her she wasn't going to take her anywhere else, so Grandma got back to the home and told a social worker mom had hit her. Which opened an investigation.
[23:32]	DaemonFC	The social worker asked my cousins if my mom would do something like that, and they said no, my grandmother has always been twisted and mean, and a liar.
